Natural Age-Related Slow-Wave Sleep Alterations Onset Prematurely in the Tg2576 Mouse Model of Alzheimer ’s Disease

Conclusion: Therefore, our results indicate that at the plaque-free disease stage, diminished sleep quality is present in Tg2576 mice which resembles aged healthy controls, suggesting an early-onset of sleep-wake deterioration in murine AD. Whether such disturbances in the natural patterns of sleep could in turn worsen disease progression warrants further exploration.Neurodegener Dis 2022;22:55 –67
